Restore the radio that belongs in your car
A classic car radio is part of the vehicle’s character. Tubular Dave’s carefully restores original AM and AM/FM radios for dependable everyday listening without changing the appearance of your dash.
Every radio is inspected as an individual unit. The work is tailored to its condition, its original electrical system, and the way you plan to use your vehicle.
What a thorough restoration can include
Mechanical service
Clean, lubricate, and adjust tuners, pushbuttons, controls, dial mechanisms, and other moving assemblies.
Circuit diagnosis
Test tubes, power supply parts, transformers, coils, switches, and audio stages to identify what needs repair.
Alignment and testing
Align radio circuits and test performance so tuning, audio, and controls work as intended.
Before you send your radio
- Include your name, return address, phone number, and a brief description of the problem.
- Tell Dave the vehicle year, make, model, voltage, and whether the original electrical system has been modified.
- Pack the radio in an inner box, then place it in a larger outer box with generous cushioning on every side.
Start with a clear assessment
Send a few details about your vehicle and radio to request an estimate before any work begins.
